I'm developing with my team a bioreactor intended for soft tissues' mechanical stimulation, we were interested in a SFF method for its realization. Are there any polymers suitable (medical grade) for the production of a bioreactor culture chamber and parts?
It depends on the 3D printing technology you have.
If you have a 3D-Bioplotter, you could for example use silicone (PDMS) for the bioreactor chamber. EnvisionTEC can provide you with medical grade silicones.
If you have a DLP system, like a Perfactory, there are biocompatible acrylic resins that could be used for the purpose.
It then depends if you want a stiff or a flexible chamber and parts, the size and accuracy of small features you require, etc. You can request a free benchmark based on your STL file on our website.
I was wondering which were the differences between using a flexible or a stiff chamber? I've always worked with stiff chambers.
